Lagos socialite, Fred Ajudua, wept profusely on Thursday after the Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja ordered his transfer from Ikoyi Maximum Prisons to Kirikiri Prisons.
Justice Mojisola Dada, who issued the order, also declined Ajudua’s request for bail on medical grounds.
Ajudua, upon hearing that he should be moved from Ikoyi to Kirikiri Prisons, bowed down his head in the dock and wept.
Ruling on the accused bail application, Justice Dada ordered that Ajudua who has been in Ikoyi Prison since the commencement of his trial last year, be transferred to the Kirikiri Maximum Prisons.
The judge noted that the socialite’s criminal cases are the oldest in the Lagos State judiciary and had suffered several setbacks due to disappearances and health challenges of the defendant.
